Bonnet adjustment?

[ValRado 0]

Hi, sorry to plague the forum with such inane questions, but my bonnet is quite sunken as it goes towards the windscreen, there is about a 6/7mm gap where its below the level of the wings. How do I adjust this?

 

Thanks

Sure you don't have a late spec wing with an early spec bonnet or v-v?

I dont think so, the bonnet is also fouling the windscreen rubbers at the corners. The wing is different but thought it was only width of the wings and centre bulge of the bonnet that is different?

 

Thanks

Loosen the bolts where the hinges bolt to the wings and move the hinge point, the hinge is on slotted holes. It'll take some playing with though as movements that seem like they will raise the bonnet will lower it, and vice versa.

I had a late bonnet on an early valver and it didn't match up with the early wings very well. It was slightly higher than the wings along either edge!
